All advices that we have indicate
 that the Mineral Belt railroad is now In process of construction, and we are
 rejoiced in common with all southern
 Arizona that this is SO, as nothing is
 of more importance to the territory
 than a north and south line, connect
 ing the two railroad systems now in
 operation. Tucson is especially inter-
 ested in this enterprise, for the Mar.
 row Gasge railroad from this place to
 Globe is now an assured thing, and
 hence the Mineral Belt railroad from
 Globe to Flagstaff opens up the whole
 country, and gives to the people this
 much desired connection with the
 north, the land of lumber, coal and
 cattle. At the time we made the in-
 quiry as to the depth of snow and ice
 at Flagstaff, we were induced by the
 fact that we thought 1t rather an un-
 propitious time, in that latitude, to
 commence the grading and construc-
 tion of railroad in mid winter, and
 feared that the good people of Flag.
 staff might possibly be imposed upon by bilks and sharpers. We were glad to know that this is not the case, and that ample funds are visible to con. struct the road some seventy miles south, and this once done, assures the road to Globe. The CHAMPION will | please remember that the Star did no, I speak of the depth of snow on the San | Francisco mountains but referred 10 | the snow and ice on the Mogollon mountains, on the preliminary survey of the Mineral Belt railroad. Will the CHAMPION say that there is no snow or ice on the route at this time that will prevent grading or the econ. omIcal construction of railroad. We happen to know something of this country and If there is no snow or ice on this route, at this season of the year, then it Is the first season since the settlement of the country that this has not been the case. We wish the CHAMPION to be candid, as this great railroad route is of too much impor- lance to the whole country, to be tri- ded with by impecunious bilks and shsrpers. --Tucson Star.
 in order 10 give a conclusive and reliable reply to the question which concludes the above article, the CHAM. PioN has sought information directly from an official of the Mineral Belt read, who has recently been over the proposed route. He states, in sub. 'tancc. that there is no part of the
 line. as surveyed, where the ground is
 in such a condition from frost or snow i IS to prevent any obstacle to the prog. r ress of the work. Further, that the Il 'nly place where they anticipated the t of any trouble is thirty | niles south of Flagstaf and before the i york reaches that point the spring will \ 'ave opened up sufficiently to thaw T. ut any effects oi wintry weather that b nay yet come.
